Today was announced the new XBOX (XBOX One). It is an all-in-one entertainment center, allowing for unique new experiences. I am going to update this post with pictures and videos as I get them. NOTE: Not required to be online!

Are you in a mood to change your Gamertag on XBL?!? I know you have to be tired of the same ol’ name… Well for this week only (XBOX deal of the week), get it cheaper (only 560 Microsoft Points, a total of 30% off)! Below are instructions on how to do so.

On your console, sign in using the Xbox LIVE gamertag that you want to change.

Go to My Xbox, and select your gamertag.

Select Change Gamertag.

Note the Price of the change, and then select Enter New Gamertag or Get Suggestions to view possible gamertags.

Once you enter or select a new gamertag, select Yes, use this gamertag.

Sega will release a demo of Sonic Generations tomorrow (6/23). The demo will allow players to sample the game’s first act, Green Hill Zone, using the “Classic Style” play style, and will support 3D televisions.

The demo will only be accessible for 20 days. On July 12, the demo will disappear from PSN and Xbox Live Marketplace. Downloaded versions of the demo will expire on that date and will no longer run.

This is where things get a bit tricky for PlayStation 3 owners. PSN is still not up in Japan, so PS3 owners will not be able to immediately download the demo. Sega’s press release announcing the demo stated that the July 12 expiration date applies to the PS3 version as well regardless of when it’s downloaded. If PSN is not restored prior to July 12, the PS3 version demo will not be released.

PSN is up in other parts of the world, so PS3 owners outside of Japan will want to check their shop tomorrow, assuming the demo is a worldwide release.

For Xbox 360 owners, Gold Membership will be required until June 30.

Yay, I’ve been waiting all year since the game was revealed for a chance to get to play it. Only a few more months until we get to enjoy this new Sonic game! ^_^

We have a simple vision. All the entertainment you want, with the people you care about, made easy. Today at E3, we took another remarkable step toward realizing that vision, unveiling a whole new way to experience entertainment, where TV is more amazing when you are the controller.

We are transforming entertainment in the living room by bringing you more entertainment experiences and new ways to enjoy them.

Coming this year to Xbox LIVE will be UFC and YouTube, adding to our ever-expanding library of great entertainment, including ESPN, Facebook, Hulu Plus, Last.fm, Netflix and Twitter. We are also forging new partnerships to bring live television to Xbox LIVE in the United States and around the world, adding to our current partnerships with Sky TV in the UK, Canal Plus in France and FOXTEL in Australia.

And this is only the beginning; we will continue to bring more entertainment experiences to Xbox LIVE for you and your friends.

But the future living room does more than give you great entertainment; it helps you find and decide. It gives you simplicity, discovery and personal choice. With the power of Xbox, the simplicity of Kinect voice control and the intelligence of Bing, now you can just say it and Xbox will find it. Bing on Xbox gives you the easiest way to find the entertainment you want.

Every day, you and nearly 35 million other members of the Xbox community are pushing us to continue to deliver new and exciting experiences. Whether it’s playing “Call of Duty: Black Ops” (Activision) and “Halo: Reach” (Microsoft Studios) with friends, or catching up on the latest episode of “30 Rock” on Hulu Plus and watching college football on ESPN, our community is spending an average of 60 hours a month on Xbox LIVE. That translates to 2.1 billion entertainment hours a month!Read more of this post
